    alot of it depends on the publisher also. Zondervan stuff... you're lucky to see it on sale once a year or once in a few years.

    Other publishers are a little more lenient, and when things are in base packages you're golden. I have aprox 16000 titles at the moment, and have paid an average of 1.16 per book.

    I would love to see some of the $1500 commentaries go on sale for $399

    I don't ever remember seeing that. BUT I have purchased $1500 commentaries for less than $399 in packages.

    I also want to let you know that I have things in my wish list that have sat there for 4 years.  Items do go on sale, but some items never go on sale.

    The thing to remember about value.  If you have 1000 books in your library, and your library costs $500, then each resource you can say averages $2 a piece.  Not a bad deal.  And the package deals are often better than that.

    I certainly do not have high expectations of success. The best option is I live to do without these commentaries. They are certainly not necessary.  With what I've spent thus far, I have a pretty complete system for my uses. The very worst result would be to purchase a commentary (for $300 or worse $1500) and never really use it at all.
